Snail Mails and Packages

DAY TWENTYONE. It finally came. :) This red Sharpie, an office supply giveaway by Nyminutenow, was delivered to me yesterday all the way from the Big Apple. What a way to brighten one’s day. ♥ Thanks, Mariel. :)

Thanks, Mariel!

I love receiving packages and snail mails — the excitement is just overwhelming, compared to receiving emails, texts, and twits that we’re so used to getting everyday, you know what I’m saying? It’s heartwarming to know that someone would take the extra mile to hand-write a letter, place a stamp, and drop by the post office (or the nearby mailbox) to send a little something to the other side of the world.

I guess that’s why I love the idea of typecasting. You’d rant the same random things, but the extra effort makes blogging a little more special. :)

And don’t you just love giveaways? I do! And I’m going to give away a few little things too, I just found the perfect giveaways tonight. So watch out for it, because I’m going to post it on Friday, in time for Day 23, same as her. :)

30 Days of Awesome, 21/30.
